ARTICLE III

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON SECURITIES;

EXCHANGE

3.1 Effect on Capital Stock.

(a) At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any securities of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub:

(i) Merger Consideration. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01, of the Company (the “Shares” and each a “Share”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) Shares owned by Parent or Merger Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries (including the Stockholder Rollover Shares), (ii) Shares owned by the Company as treasury stock (each such Share referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above, an “Excluded Share” and, collectively, the “Excluded Shares”) and (iii) Shares that are owned by stockholders (“Dissenting Stockholders”) who have perfected and not withdrawn a demand for appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL) shall be converted into the right to receive $21.00 per Share in cash, without interest thereon (the “Merger Consideration”). At the Effective Time, all of the Shares (other than Excluded Shares and Shares owned by Dissenting Stockholders) shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and (A) each certificate (a “Certificate”) formerly representing any of the Shares (other than the Excluded Shares and Shares owned by Dissenting Stockholders) and (B) each book-entry account formerly representing any uncertificated Shares (“Uncertificated Shares”) (other than Excluded Shares and Shares owned by Dissenting Stockholders) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and the holders thereof shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares other than the right to receive the Merger Consideration upon surrender thereof in accordance with Section 3.2, and each Certificate and Uncertificated Share formerly representing Shares owned by Dissenting Stockholders shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the payment of which reference is made in Section 3.3.

(ii) Cancellation of Excluded Shares and each Share owned by Dissenting Stockholders. Subject to Section 3.3, each Excluded Share and each Share owned by Dissenting Stockholders outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or the holder thereof, cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled without payment of any consideration therefor and shall cease to exist.

(b) Merger Sub. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock, par value $0.01, of the Surviving Corporation.

3.2 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Paying Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with a paying agent selected by Parent with the Company’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Shares, an aggregate amount of cash comprising approximately

4

the amounts required to be delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(a) in respect of Shares (such aggregate amount of cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”). The Paying Agent shall invest the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent; provided that (i) such investments shall be an obligation of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or bankers’ acceptances of commercial banks and (ii) no such investment (or losses thereon) shall affect the amount of Merger Consideration payable to the holders of Shares pursuant to Section 3.1(a). To the extent that there are losses with respect to such investments, or the Exchange Fund diminishes for any other reason below the level required to make prompt cash payment of the Merger Consideration as contemplated hereby, Parent shall promptly replace or restore the cash in the Exchange Fund so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all times maintained at a level sufficient to make all cash payments required pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i). No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall enter into an agreement with the Paying Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company (which confirmation of satisfaction shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to effect the applicable terms of this Agreement.

(b) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within two (2) Business Days thereafter), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate representing Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares and Shares owned by Dissenting Stockholders): (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger and the conversion of its Shares into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 3.2(e)) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificates as provided in Section 3.2(e)). Upon the surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 3.2(e)) to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of such transmittal materials, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in immediately available funds (or, if no wire transfer instructions are provided, a check, and in each case, after giving effect to any required Tax withholding provided in Section 3.2(f)) equal to the cash amount that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(a), and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable to holders of Certificates. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares represented by a Certificate that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, a check for any cash to be paid upon due surrender of the Certificate may be issued and/or paid to such a transferee if the Certificate formerly representing such Shares is presented to the Paying Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid or are not applicable, in each case, reasonably acceptable to Parent.

(c) Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

5

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments of the Exchange Fund) that remains unclaimed by the stockholders of the Company for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered, at Parent’s option, to Parent or the Surviving Corporation. Any holder of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) who has not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE III shall thereafter look only to Parent for delivery of any payment of cash (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 3.2(f)) upon due surrender of its Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 3.2(e)), without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Surviving Corporation, Parent, the Paying Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of Shares for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, immediately prior to the date any Merger Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, such Merger Consideration shall become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit (in form and substance satisfactory to the Surviving Corporation) of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed to the Paying Agent or the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such terms as may be required by Parent as an indemnity against any claim that may be made against it, the Paying Agent or the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the cash that would have been issuable or payable pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE III (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 3.2(f)) had such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate been surrendered.

(f) Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be timely remitted by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Entity and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be. Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide written notice to the Company at least five (5) days prior to making any deduction or withholding pursuant to this Section 3.2(f) (together with the legal basis thereof) and shall cooperate in good faith to obtain any available exemption from, or reduction of, such deduction or withholding.

(g) Uncertificated Shares. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within two (2) Business Days thereafter), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to (i) mail to each registered holder of Uncertificated Shares (other than in respect of Excluded Shares and Shares owned by Dissenting Stockholders) materials advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger and the conversion of its Shares into the right to receive the Merger Consideration and (ii) deliver the cash that such holder is entitled to receive in respect of its Shares pursuant to Section 3.1(a) (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 3.2(f)), without interest thereon.

6

3.3 Dissenters’ Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Dissenting Stockholder shall be entitled to receive cash pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE III unless and until the holder thereof shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s right to appraisal under the DGCL, and any Dissenting Stockholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment provided by Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to Shares owned by such Dissenting Stockholder. If, after the Effective Time, any Person who otherwise would be deemed a Dissenting Stockholder shall have failed to properly perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost the right to dissent under Section 262 of the DGCL or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that the Dissenting Stockholder is not entitled to relief provided by Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to any Shares, such Shares shall thereupon be treated as though such Shares had been converted, as of the Effective Time, into the right to receive the Merger Consideration without interest and less any required Tax withholding. The Company shall give Parent written notice as promptly as practicable of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Law received by the Company relating to stockholders’ rights of appraisal. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands. Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct and control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands. Any amounts required to be paid in respect of any Shares held by a Dissenting Stockholder shall be paid by the Surviving Corporation.

3.4 Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. In the event that the Company changes the number of Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Shares, in each case issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time as a result of a distribution, reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, subdivision, or other similar transaction, the Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to eliminate the effects of such event on the Merger Consideration; provided that nothing in this Section 3.4 shall be construed to permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person to take any action that would otherwise be prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

3.5 Treatment of Equity Awards.

(a) Treatment of Stock Options. At the Effective Time, with respect to each outstanding option to purchase Shares (other than rights to purchase Shares under the ESPP) (a “Company Option”) granted under the 2019 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (collectively, the “Company Stock Plans”), whether vested or unvested, (i) if the per Share exercise price of such Company Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Option shall terminate and be cancelled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, without any consideration being payable in respect thereof, and have no further force or effect and (ii) if the per Share exercise price of such Company Option is less than the Merger Consideration, such Company Option shall become fully vested (to the extent unvested or to the extent such Company

7

Option would not otherwise vest) and shall terminate and be automatically cancelled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time in exchange for the right to receive, in accordance with this Section 3.5(a), a lump sum cash payment in the amount equal to (x) the number of Shares underlying the Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (y) an amount equal to the Merger Consideration minus the applicable exercise price (the product of (x) and (y), the “Option Payment”). From and after the Effective Time, each Company Option shall no longer be exercisable by the former holder thereof, but shall only entitle such holder to the payment of the amount described in this Section 3.5(a), if any. Parent shall, or, if applicable, shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to, pay the Option Payment (if any) payable under this Section 3.5(a) to each former holder of a Company Option that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll to such former holder, as soon as practicable following the Effective Time (but in any event not later than ten (10) calendar days thereafter), net of any Taxes withheld pursuant to Section 3.2(f).

(b) Treatment of Restricted Stock Units. Each outstanding restricted stock unit that is subject to timed-based vesting conditions (a “Restricted Stock Unit”), that was granted under the Company Stock Plans that is outstanding or payable as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall become fully vested (to the extent unvested or to the extent such Restricted Stock Unit would not otherwise vest) and shall terminate and be automatically cancelled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time in exchange for the right to receive a lump sum cash payment in the amount equal to (i) the number of Shares underlying such Restricted Stock Unit, multiplied by (ii) the Merger Consideration. Following the Effective Time, no such Restricted Stock Unit that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding and each former holder of any such Restricted Stock Unit shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the consideration set forth in this Section 3.5(b) in exchange for such Restricted Stock Unit in accordance with this Section 3.5(b). Parent shall, or, if applicable, shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to, pay the consideration payable under this Section 3.5(b) to each former holder of a Restricted Stock Unit that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll to such former holder as soon as practicable following the Effective Time (but in any event not later than ten (10) calendar days thereafter), net of any Taxes withheld pursuant to Section 3.2(f).

(c) Treatment of Performance Restricted Stock Units. Each outstanding performance restricted stock unit that is subject to performance-based vesting conditions (each, a “Performance Restricted Stock Unit”) that was granted under the Company Stock Plans that is outstanding or payable as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall become fully vested (to the extent unvested or to the extent such Performance Restricted Stock Unit would not otherwise vest) and shall terminate and be automatically cancelled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time in exchange for the right to receive a lump sum cash payment in an amount equal to the number of Shares subject to such Performance Restricted Stock Unit that would vest based on the target level of achievement (provided that in no event shall such number of Shares exceed 990,000), multiplied by (ii) the Merger Consideration. Following the Effective Time, no such Performance Restricted Stock Unit that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding and each former holder of any such Performance Restricted Stock Unit shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the consideration set forth in this Section 3.5(c) in exchange for such Performance Restricted Stock Unit in accordance with this Section 3.5(c). Parent shall, or, if applicable, shall cause one of its

8

Subsidiaries to, pay the consideration payable under this Section 3.5(c) to each former holder of a Performance Restricted Stock Unit that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll to such former holder as soon as practicable following the Effective Time (but in any event not later than ten (10) calendar days thereafter), net of any Taxes withheld pursuant to Section 3.2(f).

(d) Treatment of Company Restricted Stock. At the Effective Time, each Share subject to vesting, repurchase or other lapse restriction (the “Company Restricted Stock”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall fully vest (to the extent such Company Restricted Stock would not otherwise vest) and be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 3.1(a) and be treated in the same manner as all other Shares for such purposes.

(e) Treatment of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Company shall take all actions necessary to terminate the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) and all outstanding rights thereunder as of the day immediately prior to the Effective Time, contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing. The offering or purchase period under the ESPP that would be in effect as of the Effective Time (the “Final Offering Period”) shall terminate no later than the day immediately prior to the Effective Time, and the Company shall cause the exercise date applicable to the Final Offering Period to accelerate and occur on the termination date of the ESPP with respect to any then-outstanding purchase rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) all amounts allocated to each participant’s account under the ESPP at the end of the Final Offering Period shall thereupon be used to purchase whole Shares under the terms of the ESPP for such offering period, which Shares shall be cancelled at the Effective Time in exchange for the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 3.1(a) following the purchase of the Company Shares, (ii) the Company shall return to each participant the funds, if any, that remain in such participant’s account after such purchase and (iii) the Company shall take such steps as may be necessary such that, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, (x) no new participants may commence participation in the ESPP, (y) no current participant in the ESPP may increase his or her rate of contribution under the ESPP and (z) no new offering period will commence after the date of this Agreement.

(f) Further Action. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the board of directors of the Company and the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions which are reasonably necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.5.

ARTICLE IV

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Except (a) as set forth in the corresponding sections or subsections of the disclosure letter delivered to Parent by the Company at the time of entering into this Agreement (the “Company Disclosure Letter”) (it being understood and agreed that any disclosure set forth in one section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to be disclosed with respect to, and shall be deemed to apply to and qualify, the section or subsection of this Agreement to which it corresponds in number and each other section or subsection of this Agreement to the extent the qualifying nature of such disclosure with respect to such other section or subsection is

9

reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure) or (b) as disclosed in any Company Reports filed with the SEC on or after January 1, 2022 and prior to the third Business Day prior to the date of this Agreement (excluding all disclosures (other than statements of historical fact) contained in any “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” sections of such Company Reports and any other disclosures included or referenced in any such Company Reports that are cautionary, predictive or forward looking in nature); provided that nothing disclosed in any such Company Reports will be deemed to modify or qualify the representations and warranties set forth in the first sentence of Section 4.6, the Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as follows:

4.2 Capital Structure.

(a) The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of (x) 675,000,000 Shares and (y) 10,000,000 preferred shares, par value $0.01 (the “Preferred Shares”).

As of the Capitalization Date, 1,593,479 Shares are reserved for issuance under the ESPP. Except for the preceding sentences and except for Shares that after the date hereof become reserved for issuance or subject to issuance as permitted under this Agreement, the Company has no Shares, Preferred Shares or other shares of capital stock reserved for, or subject to, issuance.

(b) From the Capitalization Date to the execution of this Agreement, the Company has not issued any Shares, except pursuant to the exercise of Company Options or the settlement of Restricted Stock Units and Performance Restricted Stock Units outstanding as of the Capitalization Date, in accordance with their terms, and, since the Capitalization Date, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement for the period following the date of this Agreement, the Company has not granted any Company Options, Restricted Stock Units or Performance Restricted Stock Units.

10

(c) Except as set forth in Section 4.2(a), as of the date of this Agreement, there are no preemptive or outstanding (i) shares of capital stock or equity securities or obligations of the Company or its Subsidiaries convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock or other equity or voting securities of the Company or its Subsidiaries or (ii) rights, options, warrants, conversion rights, stock appreciation rights, redemption rights, repurchase rights, agreements, arrangements, calls, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, “phantom” stock rights, equity-based compensation, contingent value rights, subscriptions, commitments or rights of any kind that obligate the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to issue, transfer or sell any shares of capital stock or other equity or voting securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any securities or obligations convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or giving any Person a right to subscribe for or acquire from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries any equity or voting securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

As of the date of this Agreement, (i) none of the Commitment Letters has been amended, restated or otherwise modified (and, except as permitted under this Agreement, no such amendment, restatement or modification is contemplated) (provided that the existence or exercise of “market flex” provisions contained in the Redacted Fee Letter shall not constitute an amendment, restatement or modification of the Debt Commitment Letter) and (ii) the respective commitments set forth in the Commitment Letters have not been withdrawn, rescinded, amended, restated or otherwise modified in any respect by Parent, Merger Sub or the Equity Investors or, to the Knowledge of Parent, any other party thereto (and, except as permitted under this Agreement, no such withdrawal, rescission, amendment, restatement or modification is contemplated by Parent, Merger Sub or the Equity Investors or, to the Knowledge of Parent, any other party thereto). As of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time, or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach or a failure to satisfy a condition precedent on the part of Parent under the terms and conditions of the Commitment Letters, other than any such default, breach or failure that has been waived by the Lenders or the Equity Investor, as the case may be, or otherwise cured in a timely manner by Parent to the satisfaction of the Lenders or Equity Investor, as the case may be. Parent or an Affiliate thereof, has paid in full any and all commitment fees or other fees required to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Commitment Letters on or before the date of this Agreement, and intend pay in full any other commitment fees and other fees required to be paid thereunder as and when they become due.

(c) Except as expressly set forth in the Commitment Letters, there are no (i) conditions precedent to the obligations of the Lenders or the Equity Investor to provide the Financing or (ii) contingencies (including any condition or contingency relating to the availability of any “market flex” provisions) that would permit the Lenders or the Equity Investor to change the total amount of the Financing or impose any additional conditions precedent to the availability of the Financing. As of the date of this Agreement, Parent represents and warrants that there are no side letters or agreements or understandings to which Parent or any of its Affiliates is a party related to the funding or investing, as applicable, of the Financing that adversely affect the availability of the Financing other than as expressly set forth in the Commitment Letters.

32

(d) As of the date of this Agreement, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2, Parent has no reason to believe that at the Closing, (i) the Financing, as contemplated by the Commitment Letters, will not be available to permit Parent to perform its obligations under this Agreement (including all payments to be made by it in connection herewith) and (ii) Parent will not have immediately available funds in connection with the Financing in an aggregate amount (after netting out applicable fees, expenses, original issue discount and similar premiums and charges provided under the Debt Commitment Letter, and assuming that all rights to flex the terms of the Debt Financing are exercised to their maximum extent), to enable Parent to (x) consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby on the terms contemplated by this Agreement, including the payoff, satisfaction and discharge and/or defeasance by Parent of the Existing Credit Agreement, the release of any guarantees relating thereto and the release of any Liens or other security thereunder (the “Debt Payoff”) if so requested by Parent and (y) pay all related fees and expenses and undertake its other obligations at Closing upon the terms contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Required Amount”). Parent has not incurred any obligation, commitment, restriction or other liability of any kind, and is not contemplating or aware of any obligation, commitment, restriction or other liability of any kind, in either case which would impair or adversely affect such resources, funds or capabilities.

(e) As of the date of this Agreement, Parent (both before and after giving effect to any “market flex” provisions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter) does not know of any (i) event that would result in any material breach of, violation of, or constitute a material default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a material default) by Parent or Merger Sub under the Financing, (ii) reason that any of the conditions precedent to the funding of the Financing will not be satisfied or that the Financing will not be available on the Closing Date or (iii) reason to believe that any of the Equity Investors or Lenders will not perform their respective funding obligations under the Commitment Letters in accordance with their respective terms and conditions. In no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing by Parent or any Affiliate of Parent of any other financing or other transactions contemplated by this Agreement be a condition to any of Parent’s obligations hereunder.

(f) The Equity Commitment Letters contain all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the parties thereunder to make the full amount of the Equity Financing available to Parent on the terms set forth therein. The Debt Commitment Letter contains all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the parties thereunder to make the full amount of the Debt Financing available to Parent on the terms set forth therein.

(g) Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Parent has delivered to the Company limited guarantees, each dated as of the date of this Agreement (the “Limited Guarantees”) pursuant to which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Dubilier & Rice Fund XI, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, TPG Partners VIII, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and TPG Healthcare Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Guarantors”), have guaranteed their pro rata portion of the payment of (i) the Parent Termination Fee and the costs and expenses in connection with the enforcement thereof, in each case to the extent such amount is due and

33

payable pursuant to Section 8.5(d) and Section 8.5(f) and (ii) the expense obligations of Parent to the extent due pursuant to Section 6.10(a)(i) and Section 6.10(a)(ii). The Limited Guarantees are in full force and effect and are valid and binding on the applicable Guarantor and enforceable against the applicable Guarantor in accordance with its terms and no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could constitute a default on the part of the Guarantors under the Limited Guarantees.

5.8 Solvency. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub is entering into this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of Parent, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person. Immediately after giving effect to all of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Commitment Letters, including the Financing and the making of the payments contemplated by this Agreement, and assuming (i) the satisfaction of the conditions to Parent’s obligation to consummate the Merger as set forth herein, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth herein and the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and (ii) that the most recent financial forecasts for the Company made available to Parent prior to the date hereof have been prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that were, and continue to be, reasonable and (iii) that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, without giving effect to the Financing, the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are Solvent, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, will be Solvent.

5.9 No Other Representations and Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties of Parent and Merger Sub contained in this ARTICLE V, or in any certificate delivered in connection with this Agreement, neither Parent nor Merger Sub is making and has made, and no other Person is making or has made on behalf of Parent and Merger Sub, any express or implied representation or warranty in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; and neither Parent nor Merger Sub nor any person on behalf of Parent and Merger Sub is making any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to Parent and Merger Sub or with respect to any other information made available to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, except for the representations and warranties set forth in ARTICLE IV or in any certificate delivered in connection with this Agreement, each of Parent and Merger Sub further acknowledges and agrees that none of the Company or any of its stockholders, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, advisors, agents or other Representatives has made any representation or warranty concerning any

34

estimates, projections, forecasts, business plans or other forward-looking information regarding the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses and operations. Each of Parent and Merger Sub hereby acknowledges that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to develop such estimates, projections, forecasts, business plans and other forward-looking information with which Parent and Merger Sub are familiar, that Parent and Merger Sub are taking full responsibility for making their own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections, forecasts, business plans and other forward-looking information furnished to them (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, business plans and other forward-looking information), and that Parent and Merger Sub will have no claim against the Company or any of its stockholders, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, advisors, agents or other Representatives with respect thereto.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6.2(a), but subject to compliance with this Section 6.2(b), prior to the time, but not after, the Company Requisite Vote is obtained, the Company may, in response to an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal received after the date of this Agreement that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.2, (i) provide access to non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal; provided that such information has previously been made available to Parent or is provided to Parent promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) following the time such information is made available to such Person and that, prior to furnishing any such non-public information, the Company receives from the Person making such Acquisition Proposal an executed confidentiality agreement with terms at least as restrictive in all material respects on such Person as the Confidentiality Agreement’s terms are (it being understood that such confidentiality agreement need not prohibit the making or amending of an Acquisition Proposal) and (ii) engage or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any such Person regarding such Acquisition Proposal if, and only if, prior to taking any action described in clause (i) or (ii) above, (1) the board of directors of the Company (acting on the recommendation of the Transaction Committee) determines in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel that (A) based on the information then available and after consultation with an independent financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation that such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and (B) the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Company directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law and (2) with respect to clause (ii) above, the Company provides written notice to Parent at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to engaging or participating in any discussions or negotiations with any such Person regarding such Acquisition Proposal.

(c) Notice.

(d) No Change in Recommendation or Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Except as provided in Section 6.2(e) and Section 6.2(f), neither the board of directors of the Company nor any committee thereof shall (i) withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify (or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify), in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Recommendation or approve, recommend or otherwise declare advisable any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement,

39

(iii) after receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, fail to recommend against such Acquisition Proposal and, after receipt of such Acquisition Proposal, reaffirm the Company Recommendation within ten (10) days of receipt of a written request from Parent to do so (and if the Company Stockholders Meeting is scheduled to be held within ten (10) days, then within two (2) Business Days of such request), (iv) fail to recommend against any Acquisition Proposal that is a tender or exchange offer by a third party pursuant to Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act, (v) approve or recommend, or publicly propose to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement (each of the foregoing clauses (i)-(v), a “Change in Recommendation”) or (vi) cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement or other agreement (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 6.2(b) entered into in compliance with Section 6.2(a) and Section 6.2(b)) (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) relating to any Acquisition Proposal.

(e) Superior Proposal Exception to Change in Recommendation Provision or Entry into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 6.2(d), following receipt of a written Acquisition Proposal by the Company after the date of this Agreement that did not result from a breach in any material respect of this Section 6.2 and that the board of directors of the Company (acting on the recommendation of the Transaction Committee) determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, constitutes a Superior Proposal, the board of directors of the Company (acting on the recommendation of the Transaction Committee) may, at any time prior to the time the Company Requisite Vote is obtained, make a Change in Recommendation or terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.3(b) in order to enter into the Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal in accordance with Section 6.2(e)(ii), or authorize, resolve, agree or propose publicly to take any such action, if all of the following conditions are met:

(i) the Company shall have (A) provided to Parent four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice, which shall state expressly (1) that it has received a written Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal, (2) the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal (including the consideration offered therein and the identity of the Person or group making the Acquisition Proposal) and shall have contemporaneously provided an unredacted copy of the Alternative Acquisition Agreement and all other documents (other than immaterial documents) related to the Superior Proposal (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or any other material term or condition of such Superior Proposal shall require a new notice and an additional two (2) Business Day period) and (3) that, subject to clause (ii) below, the board of directors of the Company (acting on the recommendation of the Transaction Committee) has determined to make a Change in Recommendation or to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.3(b) in order to enter into the Alternative Acquisition Agreement, as applicable and (B) prior to making such a Change in Recommendation or terminating this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.3(b), as applicable, used commercially reasonable efforts to engage in good faith with Parent (to the extent Parent wishes to engage) during such notice period, to consider any adjustments proposed in writing by Parent to the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that the Alternative Acquisition Agreement ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal; and

40

(ii) the board of directors of the Company (acting on the recommendation of the Transaction Committee) shall have determined, in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that, in light of such Superior Proposal and taking into account any revised terms proposed in writing by Parent, such Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and that the failure to make such Change in Recommendation or to so terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.3(b), as applicable, would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement before this Agreement has been validly terminated in accordance with its terms.

(f) Intervening Event Exception to Change in Recommendation Provision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 6.2(d), upon the occurrence of any Intervening Event, the board of directors of the Company (acting on the recommendation of the Transaction Committee) may, at any time prior to the time the Company Requisite Vote is obtained, make a Change in Recommendation if all of the following conditions are met:

(ii) the board of directors of the Company (acting on the recommendation of the Transaction Committee) shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that in light of such Intervening Event and taking into account any revised terms proposed in writing by Parent, the failure to make a Change in Recommendation would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(g) Certain Permitted Disclosure. Nothing contained in this Section 6.2 shall be deemed to prohibit the Company from complying with its disclosure obligations under applicable U.S. federal Law with regard to an Acquisition Proposal; provided that this Section 6.2(g) shall not be deemed to permit the Company or the board of directors of the Company to make a Change in Recommendation except in accordance with Section 6.2(e) or Section 6.2(f).

If at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Requisite Vote, any information relating to the Company or Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, is discovered by the Company or Parent which is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or Schedule 13e-3, as applicable, such that the Proxy Statement or Schedule 13e-3 would not (1) include any misstatement of a material fact or (2) omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then (x) the party that makes such discovery shall promptly notify the other party and (y) the Company shall prepare (with Parent’s reasonable assistance) and file with the SEC an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminate such amendment or supplement to the stockholders of the Company. The Company shall notify Parent promptly of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the Staff and of any request by the SEC or the Staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or Schedule 13e-3 or for additional information and shall supply Parent with copies of all correspondence between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or the Staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement, Schedule 13e-3 or the Merger. No response to any comments from the SEC or the Staff relating to the Proxy Statement or Schedule 13e-3 will be made by the Company without providing Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, unless made pursuant to a telephone call initiated by the SEC. The Company will cause the Proxy Statement to comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

6.4 Company Stockholders Meeting.

(a) The Company will, in coordination with Parent, as promptly as reasonably practicable in accordance with applicable Law and the Company Certificate of Incorporation and Company Bylaws, establish a record date for, duly call and give notice of, and use its reasonable best efforts to convene a meeting of holders of Shares to consider and vote upon the adoption of this Agreement (the “Company Stockholders Meeting”). Subject to the provisions of Section 6.2, the board of directors of the Company shall (i) include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, (ii) recommend at the Company Stockholders Meeting that the holders of Shares adopt this Agreement and (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain and solicit such adoption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on or before the date on which the Company Stockholders Meeting is scheduled, the Company reasonably believes that (A) it will not receive proxies representing the Company Requisite Vote, whether or not a quorum is present or (B) it will not have enough Shares represented to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Stockholders Meeting, the Company may, in its reasonable discretion, postpone or adjourn, or make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of, the Company Stockholders Meeting in consultation with Parent (provided that the Company may not postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting more than two months in the aggregate pursuant to this sentence without Parent’s prior written consent (and in no event shall any such postponed or adjourned Company Stockholders Meeting be held later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Termination Date). In addition, notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 6.4(a), the Company may (and if required by Parent on no more than two occasions, shall for a reasonable period of time not to exceed ten Business Days in the aggregate) postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting to allow reasonable additional time for the filing or mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure that the Company has determined, after consultation with outside legal counsel, is reasonably likely to be required under applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated in a manner suitable under applicable Law and reviewed by stockholders of the Company prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting. Without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the adoption of this Agreement shall be the only matter (other than matters of procedure and matters required by applicable Law to be voted on by the Company’s stockholders in connection with the adoption of this Agreement) that the Company shall propose to be acted on by the stockholders of the Company at the Company Stockholders Meeting. The Company shall cooperate with and keep Parent informed on a reasonably current basis regarding its solicitation efforts and voting results following dissemination of the definitive Proxy Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the record date of the Company Stockholders Meeting be changed without the Parent’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless required by applicable Law.

(b) Notwithstanding any Change in Recommendation, the Company shall nonetheless submit this Agreement to the holders of Shares for adoption at the Company Stockholders Meeting unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VIII prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting.

6.5 Filings; Other Actions; Notification and Cooperation.

(a) The Company and Parent shall, subject to Section 6.2, cooperate with each other and use, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates to use, their respective reasonable best efforts to take (or cause to be taken) all actions, and do (or cause to be done) all things necessary, proper or advisable under this Agreement and applicable Laws to consummate and make effective the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as expeditiously as possible, and in no event later than the Termination Date, including (i) preparing and filing all documentation to effect all necessary notices, reports and other filings (and in any event, by filing within ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement the notifications, filings and other information required to be filed under the HSR Act and as promptly as practicable in the case of all other filings required under any other Antitrust Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby) and to obtain as expeditiously as possible all consents, registrations, approvals, permits, expirations of waiting periods and authorizations necessary or advisable to be obtained from any third party or any Governmental Entity in order to consummate the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including those listed in Section 7.1(b)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter), (ii) satisfying the conditions to consummating the Merger, (iii) defending any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the Merger, (iv) obtaining (and cooperating with each other in obtaining) any consent, approval of, waiver or any exemption by, any non-governmental third party, in each case, to the extent necessary, proper or advisable in connection with the Merger and (v) executing and delivering any reasonable additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Subject to Section 6.5(c), in the event that the parties receive a request for information or documentary material pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws, including a request for additional information and documentary material (a “Second Request”), unless otherwise agreed to by Parent and the Company, the parties will use their reasonable best efforts to submit an appropriate response to, and to certify compliance with, such Second Request as promptly as practicable, and counsel for both parties will closely cooperate during the entirety of any such Second Request review process. None of the parties, including their respective Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates, shall take, cause or permit to be taken, or omit to take, any action which such party reasonably expects is likely to materially delay or prevent consummation of the contemplated transactions, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. In furtherance of the foregoing, from the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, neither CD&R nor TPG (solely with respect to the TPG Capital platform) (each as defined below) shall directly or indirectly (but subject in all respects to the immediately succeeding sentence) acquire or agree to acquire by merger or consolidation with, or by purchasing the assets of or equity in, any Person (a “Specified Acquisition”), if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to or the consummation of such a Specified Acquisition would reasonably be expected to prevent or delay past the Termination Date the satisfaction of the condition to Closing set forth in Section 7.1(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary the restrictions in the foregoing sentence shall not apply to any existing portfolio company (as such term is commonly understood in the private equity industry) of CD&R or TPG. None of the parties, without the other party’s prior written consent, shall (i) withdraw or refile any filing made under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws, (ii) enter into any timing, settlement or similar agreement, or otherwise agree or commit to

44

any arrangement, that would have the effect of extending, suspending, lengthening or otherwise tolling the expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable to the contemplated transactions under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws or (iii) enter into any timing or similar agreement, or otherwise agree or commit to any arrangement, that would bind or commit the parties not to consummate the contemplated transactions (or that would otherwise prevent or prohibit the parties from consummating the contemplated transactions).

(c) Parent and the Company shall cooperate with respect to the Antitrust Laws; however, after consulting with the Company, Parent shall have final decision making authority with respect to the appropriate course of action with respect to obtaining the consents, approvals, permits, waiting period expirations or authorizations of any Governmental Entity required to consummate the Merger prior to the Termination Date. No party hereto or its counsel shall independently participate in any substantive call or meeting relating to the Antitrust Laws with any Governmental Entity in respect of such filings, investigation, or other inquiry without first giving the other party or its counsel prior notice of such call or meeting and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, the opportunity to attend and participate. In furtherance of the foregoing and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (i) each party shall notify the other, as far in advance as practicable, of any filing or material or substantive communication or inquiry it or any of its Subsidiaries intends to make with any Governmental Entity relating to the matters that are the subject of this Section 6.5, (ii) prior to submitting any such filing or making any such communication or inquiry, such party shall provide the other party and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review, and shall consider in good faith the comments of the other party in connection with, any such filing, communication or inquiry, (iii) promptly following the submission of such filing or making such communication or inquiry, provide the other party with a copy of any such filing or, if in written form, communication or inquiry, or a summary of any oral communication and (iv) consult with the other party in connection with any inquiry, hearing, investigation or litigation by, or negotiations with, any Governmental Entity relating to the Merger, including the scheduling of, and strategic planning for, any meetings with any Governmental Entity relating thereto. In exercising the foregoing cooperation rights, the Company and Parent each shall act reasonably and as promptly as reasonably practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, materials provided pursuant to this Section 6.5 may be reasonably redacted as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns or to comply with contractual arrangements or applicable Law.

(d) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in this Section 6.5, Parent, including its Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates, hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Entity in connection with the HSR Act, any other applicable Antitrust Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and to avoid the entry of, or effect the dissolution of, any decree, order, judgment, injunction, temporary restraining order or other order in any suit or proceeding, that would otherwise have the effect of preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. For the purposes of this Section 6.5, “reasonable best efforts” shall include taking any and all actions (such actions, the “Regulatory Actions”) necessary to obtain the consents, approvals, permits, waiting period expirations or authorizations of any Governmental Entity required to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby as expeditiously as possible, and in no event later than the Termination Date, including (A)(i) proposing, negotiating, committing to, effecting and agreeing to, by consent decree, hold separate

45

order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license, hold separate, and other disposition of the businesses, assets, properties, products, product lines, services or equity interests of the Company or Parent or their respective Subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates, (ii) creating, terminating, or amending any existing or new relationships, ventures, contractual rights or obligations of Parent, the Company or their respective Subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates, (iii) otherwise taking or committing to take any action that would limit Parent’s freedom of action with respect to the operation of, or its ability to retain or hold, directly or indirectly, any businesses, assets, properties, products, product lines, services or equity interests of Parent or the Company (including any of their respective Subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates), provided, that such Regulatory Actions shall be conditioned upon and become effective only from and after the Effective Time; and (B) defending through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in court by any party in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any decree, order or judgment (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would prevent the Closing from occurring prior to the Termination Date; provided that such litigation in no way limits the obligation of Parent pursuant to the foregoing sentence.

(e) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in this Section 6.5, if any administrative or judicial Proceeding, including any such Proceeding by a private party, is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement as violative of any Antitrust Law, each of the Company and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts the consummation of the Merger.

(f) Information. The Company and Parent each shall, upon request by the other, promptly furnish the other with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by the other party that is necessary or advisable in connection with any statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates to any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(g) Status. The Company and Parent shall keep each other reasonably apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of any notice or other communications received by the Company or Parent, as the case may be, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates from any third party or any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than immaterial communications.

(h) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 6.5 or any other provision of this Agreement shall require Merger Sub, Parent or any of their Affiliates (including ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”) and TPG Global, LLC (“TPG”) or any investment funds or investment vehicles affiliated with, or managed or advised by, CD&R or TPG or any portfolio company (as such term is commonly understood in the private equity industry) or investment of CD&R, TPG or of any such investment fund or investment vehicle) to, and the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, agree or otherwise be required to take any action (including any steps or actions contemplated by this Section 6.5) with respect to CD&R, TPG or such Affiliates, other than with respect to Parent and/or its Subsidiaries.

Any investigation pursuant to this Section 6.6 shall be conducted in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the Company. All requests for information made pursuant to this Section 6.6 shall be directed to an executive officer of the Company or such Person as may be designated by any such executive officer.

(b) Each of Parent and the Company may, as it deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate competitively sensitive material as “Outside Counsel Only Material” or with similar restrictions. Such material and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside counsel of the recipient, pursuant to the terms of an agreement with respect thereto on terms that are reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company and pursuant to which such

47

information shall not be disclosed by such outside counsel to any directors, officers or employees of the recipient without the express prior permission of the Company or its legal counsel, and shall be subject to any additional confidentiality or joint defense agreement between the parties. All information exchanged pursuant to this Section 6.6, including all information and/or discussions resulting from any access provided pursuant to this Section 6.6 shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreements, which shall survive any termination of this Agreement and continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

(c) To the extent that any of the information or material furnished pursuant to this Section 6.6 or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement may include material subject to the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other applicable privilege concerning pending or threatened legal proceedings or governmental investigations, the parties understand and agree that they have a commonality of interest with respect to such matters and it is their desire, intention and mutual understanding that the sharing of such material is not intended to, and shall not, waive or diminish in any way the confidentiality of such material or its continued protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege. All such information that is entitled to protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege shall remain entitled to such protection under these privileges, this Agreement, and under the joint defense doctrine.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.9 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and neither any current or former employee, nor any other individual associated therewith, is or shall be regarded for any purpose as a third party beneficiary to this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 6.9 shall be construed to confer on any Person, other than the parties, their successors and permitted assigns, any right to enforce the provisions of this Section 6.9 or be construed as an amendment of any Company Plan or the requirement to maintain any existing or adopt any new Company Plan.

Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, ensure that the organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, shall, for a period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, contain provisions no less favorable, in the aggregate, with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of present and former directors, officers, employees and agents of the Company and its Subsidiaries than are presently set forth in the Company Certificate of Incorporation and Company Bylaws (or equivalent organizational and governing documents of any Subsidiary). Any right of indemnification of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 6.11 shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified at any time in a manner that would adversely affect the rights of such Indemnified Party as provided herein.

50

actions contemplated hereby); provided, however that in no event shall the Company be required to expend for such policies an annual premium amount in excess of three-hundred percent (300%) of the annual premiums currently paid by the Company for such insurance. If the Company for any reason fails to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, continue to maintain in effect for a period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time the D&O Insurance in place as of the date of this Agreement with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable, in the aggregate, as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement, or the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, purchase comparable D&O Insurance for such six-year period with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement; provided, however that in no event shall the Company expend, or Parent or the Surviving Corporation be required to expend for such policies, an annual premium amount in excess of three-hundred percent (300%) of the annual premiums currently paid by the Company for such insurance; provided, further that if the premium for such insurance coverage exceeds such amount, the Surviving Corporation shall obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such amount.

(e) Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any threatened or actual Proceeding for which indemnification could be sought by an Indemnified Party hereunder, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Proceeding or such Indemnified Party otherwise consents in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such settlement, compromise or consent.

51

(f) Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to any directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.11 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

(i) negotiate definitive financing agreements with respect to the Financing (the “Definitive Financing Agreements”) on terms and conditions no less favorable to Parent than those contained in the Commitment Letters (including any “market flex” terms and conditions), provided, however, that in no event shall any of the Definitive Financing Agreements (A) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing provided for in the Commitment Letters (including by changing the amount of fees or original issue discount contemplated by the Commitment Letters) such that Parent would not have sufficient cash proceeds to permit Parent to pay the Required Amount on the Closing Date; (B) expand the conditions or other contingencies relating to the receipt or funding of the Financing beyond those expressly set forth in the Commitment Letters, amend or modify any of such conditions or other contingencies or impose any new or additional condition or other contingency relating to the receipt or funding of the Financing, in each case, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (x) make the funding of the Financing (or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing) less likely to occur or (y) materially delay or prevent the Closing; (C) contain terms (other than those terms expressly set forth in the Commitment Letters) that could reasonably be expected to materially delay the Effective Time or the date on which the Financing would be obtained or make the timely funding of the Financing less likely to occur; or (D) adversely impacts the ability of Parent or Merger Sub to enforce its rights against any of the other parties to the Commitment Letters or Definitive Financing Agreements;

(ii) enter into Definitive Financing Agreements with respect thereto and consummate the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters substantially concurrently with the Closing;

Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall give the Company and the Company’s legal counsel reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon drafts of all commitment letters and Definitive Financing Agreements, and shall give due consideration to all reasonable comments and changes proposed on behalf of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent and Merger Sub shall give the Company prompt notice upon having knowledge of (i) any material breach or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could reasonably be expected to give rise to any material breach or default) on the part of any party to any Commitment Letter or Definitive Financing Agreement, (ii) the receipt by Parent or Merger Sub of any written notice or other written communication from any Person with respect to any actual or potential material breach, default or dispute by or involving any party under any Commitment Letter or Definitive Financing Agreement, (iii) any actual or purported termination, rescission or repudiation of any Commitment Letter or Definitive Financing Agreement, or any provision thereof, (iv) any actual material dispute or disagreement with any Person expected to provide any portion of the Financing and (v) any other circumstance that could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability of Parent to obtain, prior to the date the Closing is required to occur in accordance with this Agreement, all or any portion of the Financing on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by any of the Commitment Letters or Definitive Financing Agreements.

(c) Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall agree to or permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision (including any termination or reduction of any commitment and/or any consent to any assignment, termination or release) or remedy under (including through the execution of any “side” letter), any Commitment Letter or Definitive Financing Agreement if such amendment, modification or waiver (i) reduces the aggregate amount of the Financing provided for in the Commitment Letters (including by changing the amount of fees or original issue discount contemplated in the Commitment Letters) such that Parent would not have sufficient cash proceeds to permit Parent to pay the Required Amount on the Closing Date or (ii) would reasonably be expected to (x) make the funding of the Financing (or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing) less likely to occur, (y) materially delay

54

or prevent the Closing or (z) adversely impact the ability of Parent or Merger Sub to enforce its rights against any of the other parties to the Commitment Letters; provided that (i) Parent may replace, amend, supplement or modify the Debt Commitment Letter to add bona fide lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities (or titles with respect to such entities) that have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement (it being understood that the aggregate commitments of the lenders party to the Debt Commitment Letter prior to such replacement, amendment, supplement or modification may be reduced in the amount of such additional party’s binding commitments under the relevant replacement, amendment, supplement or modification, which shall otherwise contain the terms set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter immediately prior to such replacement, amendment, supplement or modification, unless any modification (other than the addition of the relevant bona fide lender, lead arranger, bookrunner, syndication agent or similar entity (or additional title)) would otherwise be permitted by the terms of this Section 6.18(c)) and (ii) Parent shall notify the Company in writing of any replacement, amendment, supplement or other modification of, or waiver of any of its rights under, any Commitment Letter reasonably promptly after the time such replacement, amendment, supplement, modification or waiver is agreed.

(d) In the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter (including any “market flex” provisions that are contained in the Redacted Fee Letter) (other than as a result of the Company’s failure to satisfy the conditions in Section 7.1 or 7.2), Parent will (i) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative debt financing (in an amount sufficient such that the aggregate funds that would be available to Parent at the Closing will be sufficient to pay the Required Amount) (the “Alternative Financing”); provided that Parent shall not be required to arrange or obtain any Alternative Financing having terms and conditions (including “market flex” provisions), taken as a whole, less favorable to Parent than those contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (after giving effect to any “market flex” provision applicable under the Debt Commitment Letter); it being understood and agreed that in no event shall the obligation of Parent under this clause (d) require Parent to pay fees, interest rates or other amounts that, taken as a whole, exceed the aggregate fees, interest rates or such other amounts contemplated under the Debt Commitment Letter and the Redacted Fee Letter as of the date of this Agreement (including giving effect to any market flex provisions set forth therein); provided, further, that Parent shall provide the Company with a copy of, a new financing commitment letter pursuant to which any Alternative Financing shall be made available to Parent promptly after the time such agreement is agreed, to the extent needed to fund the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “New Commitment Letter”) (provided, that the existence and/or amount of fees, flex provisions, pricing terms, pricing caps and other commercially sensitive information set forth therein or in any fee letter may be redacted to the extent consistent with the redactions permitted by the term “Redacted Fee Letter”) which New Commitment Letter shall not include any conditions to the consummation of the Alternative Financing that are more onerous than the conditions set forth in the Debt Financing taken as a whole and (ii) if applicable, promptly notify the Company of such unavailability and the reason therefor. To the extent applicable, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to arrange promptly and consummate the Alternative Financing on the terms and conditions described in any New Commitment Letter. In the event Alternative Financing is obtained, references in this Agreement to the Financing shall also be deemed to refer to such Alternative Financing, and if one or more commitment letters or definitive financing agreements are entered into or proposed to be entered

55

into in connection with such Alternative Financing, references in this Agreement to the Commitment Letters and the Definitive Financing Agreements shall also be deemed to refer to such commitment letters and definitive financing agreements relating to such Alternative Financing, and all obligations of Parent and Merger Sub pursuant to this Section 6.18 shall be applicable thereto to the same extent as Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations with respect to the Financing.

(e) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to, in each case, use reasonable best efforts to, provide to Parent all cooperation reasonably requested by Parent that is reasonably necessary and customary for financings of the type contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, and at Parent’s sole expense, in connection with Parent’s arrangement and obtaining the Debt Financing, including: using reasonable best efforts to:

(i) (x) furnish Parent (and Parent may then furnish to applicable Financing Sources) as promptly as practicable, with the Required Information and (y) furnishing any other information related to the Company and its Subsidiaries customarily delivered by a borrower and reasonably necessary for the preparation of a customary confidential information memorandum and other marketing materials used in financing of the type contemplated by the Debt Financing; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a breach of this Section 6.18(e)(i)(y) shall not give rise to a failure of the condition set forth in Section 7.2(b) to be satisfied unless such breach is the primary cause of the failure of the Debt Financing to be obtained on or prior to the Closing Date;

(ii) cause senior management of the Company, with appropriate seniority and expertise, to assist in preparation for, and participate in, a reasonable number of investor and lender meetings (including customary one-on-one meetings and calls with or by the parties acting as lead arrangers, bookrunners or agents for, and prospective lenders and buyers of, the Debt Financing) and presentations and sessions with rating agencies in each case, to the extent required in connection with the Debt Financing;

(iii) provide assistance with the preparation of materials for rating agency presentations, bank information memoranda, syndication memoranda, lender presentations and other customary marketing materials required in connection with the Debt Financing, including the execution and delivery of customary authorization letters with respect to the Company authorizing the distribution of information to prospective lenders and investors (including customary 10b-5 and material non-public information representations);

(b) If this Agreement is terminated (i) by Parent pursuant to Section 8.4(b) (Change in Recommendation) or (ii) by the Company pursuant to Section 8.3(b) (Termination for Superior Proposal), then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after such termination in the case of clause (i) or concurrently with such termination in the case of clause (ii), pay to Parent or its designees, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, a fee equal to $88,315,000 (the “Company Termination Fee”).

(c) If (i) this Agreement is terminated (A) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.2(a) (Termination Date) prior to the receipt of the Company Requisite Vote or Section 8.2(b) (Stockholder Vote) or (B) by Parent pursuant to Section 8.4(a) (Company Breach) as a result of a breach in any material respect of Section 6.2 (Acquisition Proposals) or Section 6.4 (Company Stockholders Meeting) by failing to call or hold the Company Stockholder Meeting, (ii) prior to any such termination referred to in clause (i) of this sentence a bona fide Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly made or publicly announced to the Company or its board of directors (or any committee thereof, including the Transaction Committee), publicly announced or shall have been made directly to the Company’s stockholders and, in each case, not withdrawn in good faith at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Company Stockholders Meetings or prior to the date of termination in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.4(c) and (iii) in either of the cases referred to in clauses (i)(A) and (i)(B) of this Section 8.5(c), within twelve (12) months after the date of a termination, the Company consummates a transaction the proposal of which would have constituted an Acquisition Proposal if made prior to the termination of this Agreement or enters into a definitive agreement for any transaction the proposal of which would have constituted an Acquisition Proposal if made prior to the termination of this Agreement (which transaction is subsequently consummated), then the Company shall pay the Company Termination Fee to Parent concurrently upon the entry into definitive agreements for, or consummation of, thereof, whichever is earlier; provided that solely for purposes of this Section 8.5(c), the term “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 6.2(d), except that the references to “twenty-five percent (25%) or more” shall be deemed to be references to “fifty percent (50%) or more”.

(d) In the event of termination by (i) the Company pursuant to Section 8.3(a) (Parent Breach) or Section 8.3(c) (Failure to Close) or (ii) Parent pursuant to Section 8.2(a) (Termination Date) at a time when the Company could have terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(c), Parent shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after the date of such termination, pay or cause to be paid to the Company by wire transfer of same day funds an amount equal to $197,950,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”).

64

(e) The parties hereto acknowledge and hereby agree that each of the Parent Termination Fee and the Company Termination Fee, as applicable, if, as and when required pursuant to this Section 8.5, shall not constitute a penalty but will be liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate the party receiving such amount in the circumstances in which it is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Merger, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. The parties acknowledge and hereby agree that in no event shall either the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee or Parent be required to pay the Parent Termination Fee, as the case may be, on more than one occasion.

(f) Each party hereto acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.5 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, no party would have entered into this Agreement; and accordingly, if the Company or Parent fails to pay promptly any amount that may become due pursuant to Section 8.5(a), Section 8.5(b), Section 8.5(c) or Section 8.5(d) (any such amount due, a “Payment”), and, in order to obtain such Payment, Parent or the Company commences a suit which results in a judgment against the Company or Parent, respectively, for the applicable Payment, or any portion thereof, the party with such judgment against them shall pay to the other party its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually incurred in connection with such suit and any appeal relating thereto, together with interest on the amount of the Payment, which shall accrue at the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, in effect on the date such Payment was first required to be paid from such date through the date of full payment thereof; provided in no event shall any Party be required to pay such costs, expenses and interest pursuant to this Section 8.5(f) in an aggregate amount that exceeds $5,000,000.

65

consummated or for a breach of, or failure to perform under, this Agreement, any certificate or other document delivered in connection herewith or otherwise or in respect of any representation made or alleged to have been made in connection herewith or therewith, and upon payment of such amounts, none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement (except that the Company shall remain obligated to pay to Parent any amount due and payable pursuant to Section 8.5(f)), whether in equity or at law, in contract, in tort or otherwise.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to Section 9.13, in any circumstance in which this Agreement is terminated for any reason, the payment of the Parent Termination Fee (if due) and, if applicable, the costs and expenses of the Company pursuant to Section 8.5(f) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company Related Parties against the Parent Related Parties pursuant to this Agreement for any loss or damage suffered as a result of the failure of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated or for a breach of, or failure to perform under, this Agreement or any certificate or other document delivered in connection herewith (including the Debt Commitment Letter and the Equity Commitment Letters) or otherwise or in respect of any representation made or alleged to have been made in connection herewith or therewith, and upon payment of such amounts, none of the Parent Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement (except that the Parent shall remain obligated to pay to the Company any amount due and payable pursuant to Section 8.5(f)), whether in equity or at law, in contract, in tort or otherwise; provided that the foregoing shall not preclude any liability of the Financing Sources to the Company under the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing, nor limit the Company from seeking to recover any such damages or obtain equitable relief from or with respect to any Financing Source pursuant to the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing. Upon payment of the Parent Termination Fee, (A) neither Parent nor any Parent Related Party shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any certificate or other document delivered in connection herewith (including the Debt Commitment Letter and the Equity Commitment Letters) or therewith or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (or the abandonment or termination thereof), (B) none of the Company nor the Company Related Parties shall be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, suit, action or proceeding against Parent or any Parent Related Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any certificate or other document delivered in connection herewith (including the Debt Commitment Letter and the Equity Commitment Letters) or therewith or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (or the abandonment or termination thereof) or any matters forming the basis for such termination and (C) the Company shall cause any claim, suit, action or proceeding pending in connection with this Agreement or any certificate or other document delivered in connection herewith (including the Debt Commitment Letter and the Equity Commitment Letters) or therewith or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (or the abandonment or termination thereof), to the extent maintained by the Company or any Company Related Party against Parent or any Parent Related Party, to be dismissed with prejudice promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the payment of the Parent Termination Fee. In no event shall the Company seek on its own behalf or on behalf of any Company Related Party, any damages from, or otherwise bring any suit, action or proceeding against, Parent or any Parent Related Party in connection with this Agreement, the other transaction documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including any suit, action or proceeding relating to the Debt Financing or the Debt Commitment Letters), other than a suit, action or proceeding against Parent to recover payment of the Parent Termination Fee to the extent the Parent Termination Fee is not paid when due pursuant to this Agreement or for specific performance, injunction or other equitable remedy in accordance with Section 9.13.

70

“Confidentiality Agreements”) and the Certificate of Merger and any other certificate or instrument to be delivered hereunder, collectively constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

9.8 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to, and does not and shall not be deemed to, confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder, other than (a) as provided in Section 6.11 (Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance), (b) the right of the Company’s stockholders to receive the Merger Consideration after the Closing, (c) the right of the holders of awards under the Company Stock Plans to receive such consideration as provided for in Section 3.5 after the Closing and (d) Section 6.18(h) (Financing), Section 8.5(g) (Liability of Company Related Parties), Section 8.5(h) (Effect of Termination and Abandonment), Section 9.2 (Modification or Amendment), Section 9.3(b) (Waivers), Section 9.5 (Governing Law and Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial), this Section 9.8 (No Third Party Beneficiaries), Section 9.13 (Specific Performance) and Section 9.14 (No Recourse), and in each case, the defined terms used therein, which, to the extent applicable to the Company Related Parties, Parent Related Parties, Financing Indemnitees and/or Financing Sources, are intended to benefit and be enforceable by the Company Related Parties, Parent Related Parties and/or Financing Sources (as applicable).

9.9 Obligations of Parent and of the Company. Whenever this Agreement requires a Subsidiary of Parent to take any action, such requirement shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part of Parent to cause such Subsidiary to take such action. Whenever this Agreement requires a Subsidiary of the Company to take any action, such requirement shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part of the Company to cause such Subsidiary to take such action and, after the Effective Time, on the part of Parent and the Surviving Corporation to cause such Subsidiary to take such action.

9.10 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and in the event any court of competent jurisdiction or arbitral panel finds any provision hereof to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or enforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is found to be invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision negotiated in good faith by the parties hereto shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not, subject to clause (a) above, be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, except as a result of such substitution, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

9.11 Interpretation.

(a) The table of contents and the Article, Section and paragraph headings or captions herein are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise affect any of the provisions hereof. Where a reference in this Agreement is made to a Section or Exhibit, such reference shall be to a Section of or Exhibit

71

to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The word “or” when used in this Agreement is not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any Contract or Law defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such Contract or Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of Contracts) by waiver or consent and (in the case of Laws) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein.

(b) Any Contract or information referred to herein shall be deemed to have been “delivered”, “provided”, “furnished” or “made available” (or any phrase of similar import) to Parent by the Company if such Contract or information was posted to the data room maintained by the Company in connection with the transaction or otherwise provided directly (including through email) to Parent or any of its Representatives by 5:00 p.m. EST on the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded. If the last day of any such period is a day other than a Business Day, the period in question shall end and any such step shall be taken by or on the next succeeding Business Day.

(c) The parties have participated jointly in negotiating and drafting this Agreement. In the event that an ambiguity or a question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

9.12 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto, and any assignment without such consent shall be null and void; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, and any or all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any of its controlled Affiliates; provided, however, that no such assignment shall release Parent from liability and obligation under this Agreement.

9.13 Specific Performance.

(a) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at Law in the event that any of the obligations, undertakings, covenants or agreements of the parties to this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed

72

that the Company, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand, shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the other party, and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including Section 6.5, and including to cause Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger and the Closing and to make the payments contemplated by this Agreement, including ARTICLE I and ARTICLE III) by a decree of specific performance, in accordance with Section 9.5 of this Agreement, without the necessity of proving actual harm or damages or posting a bond or other security therefor, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity, and each party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance or other equitable remedy is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Without limitation of the foregoing, the parties hereby further acknowledge and agree that prior to the Closing, the Company shall be entitled to seek specific performance to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of, and to prevent or cure breaches of the covenants required to be performed by Parent and Merger Sub under this Agreement (including Section 6.5, and including to cause Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger and the Closing and to make the payments contemplated by this Agreement, including ARTICLE I and ARTICLE III) in addition to any other remedy to which the Company is entitled at law or in equity, including the Company’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to ARTICLE VIII and seek money damages (including damages based on loss of the expected economic benefits of the transaction to the Company). Each party further agrees that it shall not take any position in any legal proceeding concerning this Agreement that is contrary to the terms of this Section 9.13. Parent shall cause Merger Sub and each of their respective Affiliates to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 9.13(a) and subject to the last sentence of this Section 9.13(b), it is explicitly agreed that the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of Parent’s obligation to cause the Equity Financing to be funded in accordance with the terms of the Equity Commitment Letters to fund the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and consummate the Closing only in the event that (i) all conditions in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied or waived (other than those that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing) and Parent fails to consummate the Merger on the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 1.2, (ii) the financing provided for by the Debt Commitment Letter (or, if Alternative Financing is being used in accordance with Section 6.18(d), pursuant to the Alternative Financing commitments with respect thereto) has been funded or will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing and (iii) the Company has delivered an irrevocable notice that it is ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing if specific performance is granted and the Equity Financing and Debt Financing are funded. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the rights of the parties to the definitive agreements for any Financing under the terms thereof, none of the Company and its Affiliates and their direct and indirect equityholders shall be entitled to seek the remedy of specific performance of this Agreement against any Financing Source.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the exercise of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ right to seek specific performance pursuant to this Section 9.13 reduce, restrict or otherwise limit the Company’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to ARTICLE VIII and/or pursue all applicable remedies at law, including seeking payment of the Parent Termination Fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company or any of its Affiliates be entitled to the Parent Termination Fee if they have been granted specific performance of this Agreement and the Closing actually occurs.

73

9.14 No Recourse.
